Gostilna Pod vrbo
A garden under the willow
About Gostilna Pod vrbo
Pod vrbo, “under the willow”, is a traditional gostilna on Ziherlova ulica, south of Trnovo. It cooks the Slovenian classics, buckwheat žganci, štruklji and house-made gnocchi, with freshly baked bread and Slovenian wines. In summer you eat in a cool garden under the trees, and in winter by the fire. It closes on Sundays. Our advice: combine it with a walk through the Trnovo and Krakovo gardens.
